I'll be buying MH4U when it releases, and with the game getting harder,I figured I should buy something to "up" my ability to play the game. I considered buying a Circle Pad Pro, but then I realized that I could put those $20 towards a New 3DSXL($200) or a might-be-releasing regular New 3DS($160-$180?). I won't be buying the MH4U New 3DSXL bundle.
If I buy the CPP, will it interfere with me reaching over to press the ABXY buttons? Does it really impact gameplay positively? Should I just stick to using the on-screen and physical D-pad?
With a New 3DSXL, the little C-stick pad thingy is alredy built in. It's smaller and a seems to be a bit easier to reach. The New 3DSXL seems to be a tad better from what I've seen.
So, should I buy the Circle Pad Pro right after buying MH4U? Or should I save up those $20 for a New 3DS (XL)?

I'm getting the new 3ds since it's a lot faster and because Xenoblade.

I have no problem using the touch screen to use the camera, but MH4U's loading time will be like SSB3DS', so I have to get it. You can't run anything in the background either.

And I'd prefer the N3DS because the 3D on MH4U is hard to see.

Anyways, I'd just recommend practicing camera moving with the touch screen. The CPP seems rather... uncomfortable.

^nope, it is the most useful thing ever. I have played MH3U and MGS on my friends 3DS with a CPP and it is nowhere as comfortable and convenient as it is on my 3DS. The CPP is mostly used for camera functions, so its pretty important.

I feel like the cpp was the best thing i've got for the 3ds. And when i saw that it was built in i was screaming with joy. I feel like i'm going to prefer the New3ds alot better than the Cpp. But don't get me wrong the cpp is totally worth $20

I'm still going to wait on buying a N3DS since I want the smaller device. I'm going to get Xenoblade 3D, but it's staying in the box until I get a regular N3DS.
